HI all..I'm a resident of the SS forum, but I had to get a new video card today, my old GF3 kicked the bucket, so I got a GF FX 5700LE. And now when I fire up FS( or 2k2 or any other game, my screens look like this...http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/74761.jpgCan anyone explain this, and maybe help me correct the issue? I am really ticked off....been spending all afternoon trying to fix it...Thanks!!

That's certainly eyecatching ....................Before installing your new graphics card did you uninstall( remove) all the old drivers and remove the card from the device manager? If not try doing this - uninstall the device in device manager, then uninstall the NVidia drivers( Add/Remove programs), then using a utility called Driver Cleaner 3.0 ( Download free but you'll have to search for it in Yahoo or Google) clean out any remaining driver files. Go to NVidia and d/l the latest drivers and reinstall . Stand back wth fingers crossed and see what happens...............Good luckDave

Wow, reminds me of an old Battlestar Galactica episode...I would agree with Dave. Looks like conflicting video drivers at work.Jim

Also move your FS9.cfg file out and allow FS to re-build a new one with your new card installed.Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg
